No one ever requested screens instead of buttons. It’s probably some BS some CEO came up with and forced the engineers to implement.
the 2010s was a mistake
Tesla’s Model 3 uses a touchscreen for damn near everything. Some things are buried and require multiple presses in different places on the screen. It looks really good, but the actual purpose and the fact that humans driving at potentially deadly speeds need to operate it seems to have been placed a distant second to safety when the thing was designed. Given who is in charge of Tesla it’s not much of a surprise.
it *used to look good, but then they fired the former-apple designer and hired some hack who worked on android, and it looks god awful
